FOUR community groups in Sedgemoor have been awarded cash in Lloyds Bank’s community fund scheme.

The 2013 Lloyds Bank Community Fund helps people to have a positive impact at the heart of their communities by giving grants to four good causes in each community.

Bridgwater (St George's) Wembdon Scout Group was given £3,000, BARB Search and Rescue was awarded £3,000, Ups and Downs Southwest was handed £300 and Wedmore Playing Fields Management Committee was given £300.

The public voted for their favourite good cause online, in branches or by texting in during September and October.
